Well, sure you could do that, but you had said your Mac Mini was 'on all the time'..... So what else are you using the Mac Mini for?We have a new (Very Fast Lenovo Desktop) in our Home Office that is also on all the time, so that is a great place to run LMS.
You could give it try with your current RPi and see if it works with one of them..... Maybe if you can't hear a difference, you would not even have to buy another one.
BTW - I can even run LMS on my Synology NAS System, but since my Desktop is always on, and in use most of the time by my wife and I, I choose to run LMS on it.
